Mat Pilates: Beginners

You probably know this by now, but it’s all about your core. Strengthen those abdominal muscles with Pilates. In this class, you’ll use muscle control, breathing techniques, and postural alignment to strengthen your whole body. This exercise and strength-training regimen focuses on the core, but your arms and legs will get quite the workout too, and with regular practice you’ll develop better posture and flexibility. While Pilates is often done with machines, we’ll cover classical mat Pilates using six important principles: centering, concentration, control, precision, breath, and flow. This class is perfect for beginning students.
